HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT

Your friend asks " shall I bet 1000 dollars in Las Vegas tonight? "
You want answer "yes" secretly. You can do it in the following way easily.

Step 1. Write down the binary code of YES as used in computer.

Y E S
01011001 01000101 01010011
( 8 bit binary code)

Step 2. Write some sentences like
"my life is open book. I have no secrets." [30 letters]

Step 3. Let each letter in the sentence represent a bit {binary digit 0 or 1}.
To represent 0, leave the font as it is. To represent 1, make the letter slightly bolder[ you can innovate]. Code the 24 bits in first 24 letters of the sentences. Leave the remaining 6 letters as they are. They may be taken to represent trailing zeros. The sentence looks as given below.

"my life is open book. I have no secrets."

Step 4. Send the sentences through e mail.

You have communicated YES secretly to your friend in an open channel without giving room to suspicion.

This is the simple form of cryptography{science of secret coding}. Binary digit coding is the successful computer oriented technique used to represent information.

THE EARTH, A SUPER ORGANISM

JOIN MY COURSE: "Become a programmer in a day with python" A man called 'love lock' (what a name) proposed a theory called Gaia theory, named after Greek Goddess. It says, "Earth is a self-regulating organism like a human being. The organic life in it interacts with in-organic matter and maintains atmosphere, temperature and environment". Hence the earth is still suitable for the life to thrive. Imagine, in a particular place, there are lot of flowers. Some flowers are white and some are darkly coloured. We know, white reflects light and heat while dark absorbs the same. White flowers can thrive in hot climate. But dark flowers requires cold climate. The absorption and reflection balances and the environment reaches average, warm temperature at which both the flowers can co-exist. This is the essence of "Gaia" theory. On our earth, ...

THE PARABOLA

A jet of water shooting from a hose pipe will follow a parabolic path. What is the so special about parabola. Y= x^2 Draw a graph for the above equation. It will result in a parabola. This parabola is also called unit parabola. Any equation involving square will yield a parabola. Example: Y = 2x^2 +3x+3 (also called quadratic equation) X= 2 and -2, both satisfies the equation 4 = X^2. Parabolic equations always have two solutions. Any motion taking place freely under gravity follows parabolic path. Examples: An object dropped from a moving train, A bomb dropped from flying plane, A ball kicked upwards. If a beam of light rays fall on the parabolic shaped mirror, they will be reflected and brought to focus on a point. This fact is made use of in Dish Antenna, Telescope mirrors, etc. ...

DISORDER IS THE "ORDER OF THE DAY"

Imagine a balloon full of air. The air molecules are moving randomly inside the balloon. Let us pierce the balloon with a pin. The air rushes out. Why should not the air molecules stay inside the balloon safely and ignore the little hole? That is not the way the world works. The molecules always "want to occupy as many states as possible". Hence the air goes out in the open to occupy more volume. The things always goes into disorder (entropy) and the disorder increases with time. The above statement is what we call "second law of thermodynamics". Consider a cup of coffee on the table. Suppose the heat from entire room flows to your cup of coffee, the coffee will boil and the rest of the room will freeze. Freezing means bringing things to order and arrangement. It violates the second law. Hence it will never happen. Hence heat must flow from high ...
